COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTIONA real pilsner true to its traditions, Triple Hop Pilsner uses three distinct hops; one for bitterness at the beginning and two for aroma added later in the brew. The moment you spark up the barbecue is the moment to take the top off a Triple Hop Pilsner, perfect beer match with anything from the sea; snapper or cod you choose.

On tap and served in a “handle” at Ratbags in Dunedin, NZ.
Looks like a typical pilsner: pours golden amber with streams of small bubbles. Excellent clarity. Decent head.
Aroma: typical in both quality and strength. More hops than grains.
Flavor: the triple hops may add some complexity and balance but this is less hoppy than most pilsners.
Feel: medium body; nice crisp carbonation.
O: a decent but unimpressive pilsner that’s poor in comparison to the Emersons Pilsner I had earlier in the day.

Promised more than delivered...little citrus flavour and full-mouthed bitterness one expects from a well-hopped beer.
Clean and fresh...a light summer beverage produced to a budget rather than a full-rounded pilsener.

My first observation is that the description on the bottle is just a touch masturbational and needs an overhaul. This sort of thing should not be left to some pointy-shoed marketer but someone with imagination and appreciation of the brewing process. I could rail at this for hours but will direct my attention a little more constructively. However: "The thirst quencher to share with mates"? Go and dip your head in a bucket of warm wank.
The beer appeared clear and light-golden with evident bubbles but nil head. The aroma gives off a bit of perfumy aromatic hop, carbolic soap and gooseberry. This comes through in the flavour, especially the soapiness, oddly enough. There is a nudge toward hoppy bitterness that reminds you of the gooseberry and this carries it toward a medium-short finish. Not a show stopper, but pleasant enough for having a few in the sun.
